Very Cool Stuff

November 08, 2006

WIP'S

Someone recently wrote asking what I've been up to. She meant fiber-wise. Yeah, I know I've been a slug in the photo sharing department recently, but it really isn't my fault and I take full responsibility for that, even though my camera seems to have gone off it's gourd. And I don't mean that in a good way. When I got it -it took beautiful Sharp pictures, close up, all the time. It seems to have decided that it doesn't like close-ups any more and doesn't want to take any photos at all, really. So my picture quality has deteriorated to the point that I don't want to share them with you, really.

The answer to this problem is to throw the *&^% camera against the wall go back and read the manual, but I can't find it. Sigh. Thus - I haven't been able to show you cool stuff, and I feel badly about that. So this morning, despite the pouring rain, I sweet talked it into at least taking something roughly resembling photos. And Voila - bad photo's and all - here's what I've been up to.

First the front and back of a cool reversible cable scarf. The back isn't ugly at all! Then, these flowers are from Nancy Epstein's Knitted Flowers and it's an AWESOME book! There are so many variations of knitted flowers I honestly didn't know where to start knitting. There are felted ones, and petaled ones, and spiral ones and feathered ones! You'll need a cigarette - trust me. There's a link to it on Amazon on the end table sidebar at right. These flowers are for a secret project I'm working on which I can't talk about because it's for someone who occasionally reads me. I'm seriously excited about it because I think it's going to be gorgeous! I'll show the photo after I give it to her.

Then last but not least, I've been thinking deep reds and golds lately, I guess it's the fall leaves/harvest thing, this red maple is in our backyard. So in that vein, I started scrumbling in those colors. I have no idea what it's going to be -more on this as it develops.

And I've decided what to knit for the babies due in my circle - the Kiss Cap in Melanie Falick's Handknit Holidays, link on endtable sidebar! It really looks like a chocolate kiss - I'll look for a photo to show you or scan the one in my book. More later on this later...
